(Electric Magnetic Feilds) EMF Sensitivity on the Brain

(Eletctric Magnetic Feilds) EMF is everywhere from cell towers to cell phones, even your computer and wireless routers, basically anything powered by a large amount of electricity. High EMF can have a huge and dangerous impact on the brain especially someone like myself, simply because I have epilepsy. I have really noticed EMF sensitivity at my workplace because there is a lot of computer monitors and electrical equipment for preparing the food.
This is especially bothersome with my VNS (vangus nerve stimulator) when I go to work it feels like I'm constantly using the VNS magnet over and over again. I will say that high EMF sensitivity has never been a factor or problem for me until I had the VNS implant. Even for people without epilepsy  EMF sensitivity can cause a variety of other problems, Headaches, Migraines, Irritability, behavior disorders, Insomnia, ADHD, Alzheimers Parkinson's Stroke, Seizures, Nerve and/or muscle pain Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) or Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME),  Multiple Sclerosis, Tumors, cancer, Heart attacks, and cardiac arrhythmias.

Feeling Burned Out

Almost every day I am feeling tired worn out and burned out. Sometimes I feel like I might start having seizures or have a relapse. I have been trying to get somewhere back to a normal state. Maybe I have been pushing myself to hard, I'm not really sure. Between working, meds, and VNS stimulation, I find myself out of order. One thing I do know is that it's taken me this long to get this far, so there is no turning back. I just have to keep moving forward, and I will eventualy get there. If things don't work out at least I tryed.

Gaming and Seizures

One thing that I have found out during my time being and epileptic is that playing video games during a long period of  time can cause seizures. The flashing lights and bright colors can cause over stimulation in the brain causing a seizure.There are however  ways to prevent seizures during game play, one thing I have found is things to do during game play to prevent seizure activity is to limit your game play time. Don't play any games with flashing or  bright lights. One other thing I have heard is that wearing sunglasses are a good idea during game play. Not everyone has this problem with seizures during gaming. So my  advice to you is be very careful if you have epilepsy and play video games. If you do have seizures don't play games by yourself. Always have someone around just in case of an emergency.
